the Cook Strait ferry Hinemoa in 1957


This lovely view of the ferry Hinemoa berthed at Wellington was taken by Keith Fleming in 1957. As those who have read the book Strait Crossing by Victor Young will know, she sailed on the overnight voyages between Wellington and Lyttelton. Much more information about her and these voyages is contained in the book.

This photo also appears in the new issue of NZ Memories to accompany a short article by Vic: thanks ever so much to Keith Fleming for making it available for all to enjoy.
